Revolutionizing energy storage: Metal nanoclusters for stable lithium–sulfur batteries
From Tokyo University of Science 27/10/23 The demand for efficient energy storage systems is ever increasing, especially due to the recent emergence of intermittent renewable energy and the adoption of electric vehicles. In this regard, lithium–sulfur batteries (LSBs), which can store three to five times more energy than traditional lithium-ion batteries, have emerged as a […]
Salty no more: Self-cleaning membranes dramatically improve desalination efficiency
From New York University Abu Dhabi 25/09/23 A team of NYU Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) researchers has developed a new kind of self-cleaning, hybrid membrane that provides a solution that overcomes significant challenges that have, until now, limited desalination technologies. The most energy-efficient desalination technologies are based on membrane desalination. However, the membranes used for desalination […]
